rdist recommend please

I am trying to securely distribute (sync) files to several machines. Would
someone recommend the rdist program. Anyone installed it before? I
downloaded the RPM and when I did the rpm -ivh on it, it expanded it to
/usr/src/redhat/, containing several files and a .gz file. I am quessing
that I have to expan the .gz and install from the source. Any ideas?

I have tried rsync but cannot run it from cron since it is interactive.

I hope you have installed spm. Which is a source and installs the source in
/usr/src/redhat/. You have to extraxct the files from .gz and compile the
source code.
